THE PROPOSED EXTRA SESSION.


asked the president as to his reasons for
not calling an extra session of congress to con-
slider the questions of taxation left unsettled
by the last session. and which operated to pile
up in the treasury a useless surplus of some
seven millions of dollars month. To this he
said:
II gave the subject the most careful study
and consideration. There was much to be
said on both sides, but, after considering the
matter in all its bearings, l decided that an
extra session was not imperatively demanded
The converting of congress in extra term has
often failed to realize THE anticipationS of
good to proceed from it, But in this par
ticular exigency 1 should have called the
extra session if at any time the needs of the
country seemed TO demand it. The expedient
we adopted of disposing of that part of the
surplus, the retention of which from the chan
nels of trade might have proven too great a
strain upon the country, by calling the bonds,
ought to subserYe what is mperatively re-
CURED 1t appeared more to the public inter
est that the members of the new congress
should spend the usual recess among their con-
stituents,i and Eearn there by as long and as
intimate communion as possible Just what the
people required of them. With the ample dis
cussion of the subject in the public press and
tile discussion among the people themselves,
their representatives should be so educated to
a true understanding of the great matters at
issue that speedy action ought to be taken after
the organization shall have been effected"

NATIONAL BOARD OF ARBITRATION.

As to some questions which l asked him
concerning the labor movement, and particu-
larly its political aspects, the president said
that he did not consider it betting for him
to discuss the subject in this form, but he dwelt
with great earuestness upon the recommends
ton which he made in special message to con-
gress, in April 1856, and repeated in his annual
message in December of the same year, for
the Enlargement of the present labor bureau
and adding to its present functions the power
Of arbitration in cases where differences arise
between employer and employed. II repeat"
he said, "whlt | then urged, under our form
of government the value of labor as an ele
ment of national prosperity should be distinct
" recognized and the welfare of the laboring
man should be regarded as especially entitled
to legislative care and ! added, though the
importance of better accord between these
interests is apparent. it must be borne in mind
that any effort in that direction by the federal
government must be greatly limited by con-
stitutional restrictions.
Labor has it very clearly and very easily
within its power to demand and obtain from
congress all legislation within the constitution
which is needed for its protection and COM
mensurate Advancement in relation to the
interests of other elements of the body polite.
"As one means to this end l suggested as an
improvement upon n bill then pending in con-
gress-which provided, in case Of any import
ant dispute between employers and employees,
for the appointment OF "a court of arbitration
in each case, one member to be named by each
Of the eontending parties and the third by the
federal court OF the district-the establishment
of permanent board of arbitration in the
bureau Of labor and the giving it such powers
and functions as would permit it to act when
necessary between labor and capital under such
limitations and upon such occasions as should
be deemed proper and useful.
"I regret that in the press Of other legislation
this proposed board was not established

THE PRESIDENT
Gives His Views Upon Several
Leading Topics.
HIS COMING VISIT TO ATLANTA.

Ballard Smiths Interview in the Y. y World.
WAsHINGroN, September 4.-Touching the
recent agitation in the Grand Army, the out
givincs Of futile and the Wheeling episode,
the president said:
"The soldier having laid down his arms after
making so many sacrifices and enduring so
many hardships, having achieved such vast
and good work in perpetuating our republic,
should be pre-eminently the best citizen. When
he again in time of peace resumes his citizen
ship, his desire for the peace and quiet of his
country and its prosperity, entirely dependent
upon these, should be emphasized by the very
trials he has undergone. I do not believe he
can be carried away from the even plane OF
that good citizenship by the devices of unscru-
pulous men who would use him for partisan
purposes"
I referred to dispatch from st. Louis init
mating that there might be overt acts in that
city in retaliation for the Wheeling incident;
that his portrait would be displayed at promi-
nent points along the route of the Grand Army
procession with hostile intent, to see if any
demonstration should be made against it,
81 do not believe there is any truth in this"
he said sit is contrary to what know to be
the spirit of the municipal and commercial
bodies which have invited me there, and which
[ believe to be the spirit of the whole
people Of st. Louis. They certainly are
animated by the most hospitable inteut
towards their September visitors, and will
leave nothing undone which the most courteous
host can do to make the stay of the Grand
Army delegates as memorable and as pleasant
an occasion as possible. believe that they
would omit to do anything which would inter-
fere with the comfort and thorough enjoyment
Of their guests. The display of my portrait
there is certainly very unimportant matter
wherein to incur the chance even of comment.
If its omission should in any way be regarded
sure there win be no attempt to display it,"

MRS. CLEVELAND.


An hour and more had passed, and the pres
ident had STILL obviously, much work to do.
/ babe him good night after his invitation to
come to the white house again the next day at
one o'clock.
At that time I again met Mrs. Cleveland
with the president The day before she had
been dressed in some simple and most becom-
ing costume of white, but her handsome GAVIN
of this afternoon, as the other, L have not the
knowledge to describe. Whatever Mrs. Cleye-
land wears or does seems to become her, to the
admiration of every man or woman who has
seen her. 1t is the conventional expression,
even among, all the republicans that we are.
to speak OF peculiarly stately and graceful
woman as "queenly." If Mrs. Cleveland had
descended from line of gentle ancestors-as
perhaps she has--with its origin lost in the
mists of antiquity, her simple ease i'll the place
she fills as bride of only a little over year
and graduate of a rural school of just a year
before could not be more graceful and crate
full. All this is enthusiasm, but it is a senti-
ment which is very clearly that of everybody
who has met her.

HIS VIEWS AS TO AUGMENTATION.


Concerning the question of his denomination,
Mr.. Cleveland said:
ct seems to be the universal belief that
president must desire denomination. I cam
not understand how any man who has served
one term as president could have a personal
ambition i'll securing second term, with all
its solemn responsibility, its harassing duties
and its constant and grievous exactions upon
his mental and physical strength. His con-
sent, it seems to me, to accept a second term
should rest only upon his sense of q solemn
obligation as citizen and an appreciation of
his duty when called upon to bear his particu-
laY part Of the burden of cit
izenship. Thus the office can have
at least, it can have for. memo per-
sonal allurements. If my administration dur
ing my term should be useful to the people
should respond to the wishes and expectations
reason for substituting in control of the gov
eminent the party which represent for that
which had administered the affairs of the peo-
pie for quarter of century, my satisfaction
would be complete. | hope my present term
may be concluded with profit to the country,
and with as few mistakes on my part as are in
cident to falible human nature,'

At q recent party it was noticed that
several young ladies wore their hair done
up in the Grecian style, and it promises to
become quite popular. 1t can only be
worn at a ball or the opera, however, when
no hat or bonnet is worn. The style is
very becoming to some girls, and one
young gentleman was so taken with 1t,
that he remarked upon n occasion, that
if a certain young lady only wore the ac-
~cOmpanying Greek costume, he would de-
liver his heart right up to her and become
her slave. Here's u slight hint, girls.

Delivery Yesterday.

INTERESTING GOSSIP OF The CANE

A medium-sized audience greeted the
Wheeling club yesterday, at their second
meeting with the w. W. Bells. Yester-
DAVIS game was still more one-sided than
the game Of the day previous. The Bells
were completely at the mercy Of Dunn,
who was in the box for the Maroons. N
who pitched one of his greatest games.
Only three hits were made of Of his deiiv-
cry and they were too scattering to be oil
any value in the way of run getting.
The Wheeling boys caught ON to Patter.
sons delivery in the first inning, and
pounded that worthy until they rolled up
four runs The innings after this were
but a repetition of the first. The visitors
were successfully blanked, and the Ma
rooms kept on piling mp scores in a way to
make a hacker of the Bells feel heartsick.
Both clubs played listlessly, and
throughout it was evident that the home
club was enjoying veritable picnic. The
playing of Costello for the Bells was one
redeeming feature Of an otherwise slow
game. For the home team Dnnn pitched
in great form and was admirably supported.
The action Of the management in reinstat-
ing Dunn is generally commended. He
showed yesterday that he was able to play
hall with the best, and promises TO con-
tinue as he was heretofore one of Wheel
ing's strong players. Following is the
score in full:

THEY WERE IN WHEELING.
A Sad story OF a Pretty New jersey
Girl,

A Sad story of a Pretty New Jersey
Girl.
A Philadelphia paper contains the fol-
lowing sad story of New Jersey girl, who
eloped with a museum freak, a short time
ago, and spent n week or so in Wheeling:
"a pOorly-clad and weary. looking girl
called at the Eighth district police station
on Saturday night and begged Lieut..
Smith to allow her to stop over night.
Her story so excited the sympathy Of the
lieutenant that he gave up his room to
her, as there are no accommodations at
the station houses for female dodgers.
The wanderer was Annie Miller, whose
elopement from her home at New
ark, n. j., eight months
ago, attracted much public at
~tention. While on q visit to n museum the
girl had formed the acquaintance of Aug.
ust Gilmore, a fire-eating freak. Her par
ents, who were respectable, could not hear
to their friendship, and the counting was
necessarily carried on secretly, and the girl
finally consented to elope with Gilmore.
He told her he had unbounded wealth, but
before parting from the parental roof the
girl took $500 belonging to her father,
which she gave to Gilmore. The pair came
to this city, where Gilmore was engaged in
q Vine street saloon. From Philadelphia
they went to Cincinnati, and then to
Wheeling.
1.-THE girl in relating her story to Lieut..
Smith, said: While the money lasted Gil
more was kind and loveable, but as soon as
it was gone he was brutal TO me. While
we were in Cincinnati and Wheeling he
beat and abused me almost continually.
There was not rest for me and | was COM
PEELED to have him arrested He was con.
victed of the larceny of $500, but | re-
pented what had done and pleaded with
the Judge to he ~lenient, and the Judge re-
leased him with a reprimand. During our
stay at Wheeling he sold all my clothes, and
after the proceeds Of this had been spent
he actually cut off my beautiful long hair
and sold it. We returned to Cincinnati,
where he was arrested in the act Of beating
me, and is now serving thirty days in Jail.
Some city officials who had become inter-
ested in me through my first case against
my husband raised enough money to send
me to Harrisburg. ! started TO walk 10
Newark, but | was arrested on the out
skirts of the city. At the police station
the officers contributed money enough TO
bring me to this city, and here / am, PEN

ing, a telephone message from Bellaire,
stated that Timothy Butler, n young
man well-known in b. & o. rail
road circles, had been shot in the
throat and fatally injured, by some
person as vet unknown. No information
